I just followed This Turtorial and I got almost to the end. I'm tryinig to embed the Acens font from Dafont website.

I've got to the point where I am supposed to list the website the font is to be created for, using the WEFT program, and I list Xanga.com. I'm not sure where I supposed to store the .eot file, so I just put it on my C drive.

It doesn't seem to complete the embeding. I don't know if the .eot file gets downloaded, and I don't see Acens listed in my drop down menu on Xanga tools bar.

Also, I don't want to use the font on the entire website, just on my posts. Do I need to imput a code into my custom module for that?

Thanks.

I tried using the font face html, but it didn't work. Thanks for the link... I will read it shortly.

I want to be able to use several differnet font types within a single post. This does not seem to be a very effective method for that... additionally, I am wondering if this gets seen by anyone besides myself. It was unclear to me when I first read about embedding fonts as to whether only the person who downloaded the font would be able to read it in that font or not.

I asked my readers to comment if they were getting the embedded type face or not, but because of the Xanga mistake, I haven't had comments for the past day.

If anyone wants to check out the page HERE and let me know if they are reading it in the Acens type face, I would appreciate it.

Anyway, I am wondering what programming device I would need to post a blog entry in several different funky type faces, that can be read by other computers.

Would photoshop have this capacity? In other words, would I have to use photoshop to do a blog entry in custom fonts, and then up load the entry as a photo to the blog?

Thanks to anyone who replies.
